February Habit of the Month - Listening with Empathy
Devoting mental energies to understanding other people's thoughts and feelings."
Out of all the Habits of Mind, Listening with Empathy is probably the most powerful. Think about how critical it is to listen to others and thoughtfully understand and communicate with a diverse range of personalities. How do we know if we're empathetic listeners? Sometimes we say that we are listening, when actually what we are doing is rehearsing in our heads what we are going to say next!
The video below is a classic take on Listening with Empathy...enjoy!
